Help with catalgue/products

[timbo]

Hi there

I am building a store which sells printer cartridges and need some help on the following -

I would the store to be set up so you can choose say HP Cartridge Options and then be able to select a drop down list of all HP Laser printers, then be able to select cartridges as products available for that printer - the problem is I cant get the drop down list into a section or sub section - only a product.

My website is www.fastcartridge.co.uk

any help would be much appreciated.

I'm afraid that isn't possible. However you can extend the JavaScript that builds the STORE SECTIONS list to include another level.

Alternatively use NorTree or NorCascade to make a dynamic menu that will take the customer anywhere in one click. See www.snowlines.co.uk for an example - just hover the mouse over the "Products >" box.

That top-level icon can be expanded to show the top-level list.

These add-ons are on www.drillpine.biz/actinicstuff/

PS we're neighbours (nearly) - I'm in Lasswade.

This site http://www.consumablecafe.co.uk/acatalog/ uses 2 levels of section to get you where you want to be.

Here's the STORE SECTIONS code (in the Primary Templates), extended to show the 3rd level.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="text/javascript">
<!--
function YahooSections(ar)
{
var strIDs = '';
for (var i=1;i<=ar.length;i++)
  {
  if (ar[i].sURL != null)
    {
    strIDs += '<a href="' + ar[i].sURL + '"><span class="actxxsmall"><b><font color="NETQUOTEVAR:FGCOLORCSS">' + ar[i].sName + '</font></b></span></a><br>';
      {
      if (ar[i].pChild)
        {
        for (var j=1;j<=ar[i].pChild.length;j++)
          {
          if (ar[i].pChild[j].sURL != null)
            {
            strIDs += '<a href="' + ar[i].pChild[j].sURL + '"><span class="actxxsmall"><font color="NETQUOTEVAR:FGCOLORCSS">' + ar[i].pChild[j].sName + '</font></span></a><br>';
            if (ar[i].pChild[j].pChild)
              {
              for (var k=1;k<=ar[i].pChild[j].pChild.length;k++)
                {
                if (ar[i].pChild[j].pChild[k].sURL != null)
                  {
                  strIDs += '&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href="' + ar[i].pChild[j].pChild[k].sURL + '"><span class="actxxsmall"><font color="NETQUOTEVAR:FGCOLORCSS">' + ar[i].pChild[j].pChild[k].sName + '</font></span></a><br>';
                  }
                }
              }
            }
          }
        }
      }
    strIDs += '<br>'
    }
  }
return strIDs
